FAQ
Q: Can I bring my own chip?
Bringing your own chips: Select "Bring your own chip" and make sure yours is delivered in a syringe style applicator. For chips intended for subdermal placement via a incision please contact xandra first.
Q: Projects using this chip
  • Manawyrm/ntag5_thermometer — temperature-sensing low-frequency RFID reader that continuously scans ISO 11784 FDX-B animal chips and extracts the embedded temperature (0.11 °C/step resolution, ~31–37 °C core body estimation).
  • CreatureCards — creature profile platform tracking chipped animals with sighting data.
  • Critterscan — open-source scanner firmware and browser-based flasher for ISO 11784 FDX-B animal chips, enabling accessible scanning via web browsers or PlatformIO.
Q: Is this MRI safe?
MythBusters proved this on TV: Season 5, Episode 19 (MythBusters Revolution) installed a 134 kHz VeriChip transponder into both a piece of pig and Kari Byron, then ran them both through an MRI scan. You can clearly see the image distortion in the episode.

Scientific evidence: PubMed article on RFID transponder compatibility with MRI machines up to 3 T — "Functionality of veterinary identification microchips following low-field (0.5 tesla) and high-field (3 tesla) magnetic resonance imaging."
